To beat this guy for the Critical Critters portion of the meta achievement I used a Fire Beetle (1, 2, 2), Dust Bunny (1, 2, 1), and an Arctic Hare (1, 2, 1).

I opened with my beetle and used Apocalypse then switched to my first rabbit and used Burrow followed by Dodge and spammed my first ability until he died. I brought out rabbit number two and did the same thing as the first rabbit. Once my bunnies were dead I swapped back to the beetle and used Cauterize and spammed his first ability until Apocalypse hit.

There might be a better way to kill him, but this is what worked for me.

Seems pretty straightforward. Single target, no adds. Cast Apocalypse off the bat. Chewed grass and then Hoof.

Note: I see some failures under this post, I tested these fights 2-3 times with no any crit by me, but bad RNG can fail you in some tight fights.

For beasts, I used Dreadmaw 1,1,2; Grumpy 2,1,1; and Vengeful Porcupette 1,1,2. The dots were important for this to get him down enough.

Dreadmaw, opened with Acidic Goo, did a Burrow to avoid the big hit, then hit Ruinhoof with Glowing Toxin. I was lucky enough to get in a second Acidic Goo before he took down my first pet.

Bring in Grumpy with Howl then Superbark. You likely won't get to use Bite.

Vengeful Porcupette opens with Spirit Spikes. Ruinhoof died after that but if you need to clean up you can use Vengeance.

Unstoppable Undead:I listed the relevant abilities. The listed strat works perfectly because Ruin will smash your undead face in every other round. I listed the breeds although I'm not sure that they ultimately matter.

no tactics really just use Lil Bling and choose Inflation,Extra plating, and Make it rain start off with inflation then when that has finished use Make it rain if bling does die it will leave around 50hp for your other 2 pets to finish off enjoy!

Unstoppable Undead caused me a lot of headache, but after dinner, I cracked the nut (no pun intended).

I made a video showing how I beat Ruinhoof with humanoid, dragon, flying, undead and critter. will be making a part 2 in case anyone is stuck. I had trouble finding videos when I was doing the achievement so I decided to make some in case it is easier to watch like it is for me. I posted them to youtube under Valeda Mystico. I suggested a link on here as well.

Unused third pet remains as last active pet standing (although it doesn't get XP cos technically Val'kyr survives too once it gets out of Haunt).

If you want to get XP for your third pet, you can use Unholy Ascension instead of Haunt from the Val'kyr, but the third pet will need to be able to do about 500 damage to Ruinhoof in one round - with the assistance of Stampede + Unholy Ascension multipliers but also the boss penalty halving damage - and that's a bit of a stretch for most leveling pets.

Magical Mayhem (or leveling pet)

Mini Mindslayer (2,1,2)Mana Wyrmling (1,2,2 - mine was P/B, probably doesn't make a difference but the two non-Power breeds would mean you need a higher damage or avoidance-capable third pet to finish)Third magic pet capable of doing a ~100 damage attack (or a leveling pet capable of the same...)

Bring in your choice of third pet:Ruinhoof Chew Cud -> Third pet does any attack that's got a guaranteed base damage of >100, which only hits for 50+ due to Ruinhoof's boss aura, but this will be enough to kill Ruinhoof.

Zandalari Anklerender still destroying Legendary battle pets with the 2-2-2 build all by himself

start with Primal Cry, Black Claw, Hunting Party, then a Black Claw again and Primal Cry (in case your pet is going to die your next pet will have speed advantage)

Ruinhoof Cheevo Strats*All pets used are level 25 and rare quality*Pets are listed in their position order (so pet #1 goes first).Tip: when looking for a pet with a listed ability for the strategies below, type the ability into your pet search bar, and pets with that ability will be filtered for you.
